Your Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wedding - August/September (Issue 96)

Rob said that seeing me walk up the aisle in my dress was a memorable moment for him. Our vicar was entertaining and made us all feel comfortable during the ceremony. We were incredibly lucky to benefit from the blossom on the cherry tree outside the church and several across the estate. We hoped the trees might be in bloom, but it wasn’t guaranteed! The private, relaxed environment that Wasing offe rs was important to us, it was great knowing we were the only ones there. When we first visited, we instantly felt comfortable and knew it was the venue for us. We wanted to find somewhere that we knew our friends and family would enjoy and the team went above and beyond Having the church service surrounded by our loved ones felt really special. Walking in and realising that all of our friends and family were gathered together waiting to see us get married and knowing they were there to support us felt amazing. Wasing is home to plenty of bedrooms on-site allowing our guests to stay overnight and join us for breakfast the following morning. Some of the bedrooms are very quirky, such as the Granary and the Dovecote which features a triangular bed! St Nicholas’ Church, Wasing is located on the estate. We went to church for seven months leading up to our wedding to qualify for marrying in the parish and during this time, we got to know the church community who were always so welcoming. Wasing is stunning, from the long driveway and t he beautiful church on-site to the manicured lawns an d immaculate landscaping. The converted barn oozes character and allowed us to hold the ceremony and celebrations in one location. 38
